From the New Haven Conn. Palla-

lowing obituary notice of Cyrus Cheney,
only brother of our townsman Calvin

Cyrus Cheney died at his residence in
North Haven Saturday afternoon at eight
o'clock. For nearly two years he has
been great sufferer.
He was born at Prospect, Maine Janu-
airy %, 1884. His early life was spent on
the sea- At the age of twenty-one he
commanded a large vessel in the West
India trade. He married Susan, daugh-
ter of Levi L. Bigelow and sister of George
W. and Ex-Governor Hobart B. Bigelow
of this city. In 1864 he purchased
farm and settled in North Haven, where
he spent the remainder of his life
Twice he represented the town in the
legislature-in 1874 and 1886. For seven
years he was a member of the board of
selectmen; four of them he was first Sc
lectman and town agent
He was a valued member of St. Johns
Episcopal church, good citizen, wise

The following particulars of the
death of former resident of this city will
be read with sorrow by his friends:
On Monday morning at about 2 o'clock
a message flashed over The wires saying
that Eugene NJ. Bond had been suddenly
killed in Owatonna J. J. Bond, brother
of deceased, and J. P Greene took the
first train for the scene of the accident
anG found that the death was brought
about by deceased endeavoring TO board a
passing train to ride to the state school
building where he was at work. 1t was
about $50 A. M, with his tools in his
hand Mr. Bond tried to get upon the
moving train, a wheel passing over one
shoulder, mangling him tearfully and
causing instant death. The body was
brought to this city and inferred beside
his father in the cemetery, on Tuesday.
Deceased was about 43 years of age
and was man of considerable natural
ability Over bis designations and excuses
let us draw the veil of charity and hope
that the troubled, restless spirit is now at
rest 'To err is human, to forgive divine"

An AWARD OF 6 CENTS AND Costs
FIT. ATKINSON, Sept. 26.-The Hons. L.
B. Caswell and g. O. Smith have returned
from Black River Falls, where they were
eng%sd in the suit of j. Fl. Preston
against Charles Davis and Mrs Laura
Proctor for damages alleged to have been
sustained by the replevin of the hotel be-
fore the expiration of the lease. Preston
won, but through the efforts of lawyers
Caswell and Smith the award of damages
was only cents and costs-about $50.
The defendants will not appeal. The case
created much interest here, as both the
defendants are we'll known; and owing
to the peculiar injustice in the situation,
and the fact that the burning of the hotel,
thoroughly believed to be incendiary,
caused the ruin of Mr.. Davis, it was
hoped that the costs in the case would be
fixed on the plaintiff.

To the question suggested by some of
the bourbon organs, "whatis the 6. A. r.
good for?" The Detroit Tribune makes
the following most apt, satisfactory and
conclusive reply:
"Why, my poor benighted, erring
brother, the G. A r. during the past year
disbursed over $4,000 in charity out of
its own pocket and over $4,000 worthy
people were its bene6ciaries. Some of
this fund went to relieve the distressed
in the sunny south; was distributed
among the Charleston sufferers; yea,
even among those who fought on the
other side. What is it good for, do you
ask? Why, bless you, it is good for a life
as long as the life is its last comrade, and
as noble and proud a record as the his
torian ever wrote.

no such thing exists, and that even If it did
it amounted to nothing. There is, how
ever, such an organization, although it is
not very prominent at present. Should a
special meeting of the general assembly be
held and the alleged unconstitutional work
OF the Richmond meeting be undone and all
matters be set right it is very probable that
no more will be heard of the ''improved Or
der" but should special meeting not be
called and dissatisfaction continue to
spread the improved order" will probably
have boom.

the cause of labor and whose honesty none

out of his salary in the next two years, then
